I don't take offense to being accused of being another team's fan, but if you check my post history, I'm very much a Flames fan only. Doesn't mean I can't wish for the Flames to suck so we can be forced into a rebuild. Or that I can't like non-Flame players.
My favorite player growing up was Jagr but my favorite team as a young kid from Lethbridge was... the Leafs. I had a Dave Andreychuk hockey card and he was also one of my favorites. I even had a Leaf hat!
But since moving to Calgary, I've been pro-Flames all the way.

Canucks evidently will steamroll their way right to a cup.

Yeppp.
As a Sabres fan I'll never forget this one:

This is CP. If you say nice things about any other team you get ridiculed.
It's not like you acknowledged that Hughes is going to get Hart consideration if he keeps playing like this. Dude's numbers are off the charts.

I'm still waiting for the 2001-02 Flames to steamroll their way right to the Cup after their 13-2-2-2 start.

What the Nucks need is a couple guys like Kessler and Burrows so we can get back to unambiguously hating them whether they’re any good on the ice or not.

Lol this year's version of the Flames is about as not good as they've been in years and the Canucks still got worked.

Who would have predicted J.T. Miller to be the scoring leader currently in this NHL season.

JT Miller leading the league in points. Wow.
I know it's pretty early but that's crazy. He looked like a guy at least 3 screws short last year, and ready to kick the #### out of a teammate if he didn't like what he did. This Canucks team is scary IMO.
The Canucks have pieces the Oilers simply don't have, most notably Hughes and Demko.
